Application Layer Protocols, Computer Networking

 Principles of

Application Layer Protocols

Network applications are the raisons d'etre of a computer network. If we couldn't conceive of any useful applications, there wouldn't be any need to design networking protocols to support them. But over the past thirty years, many people have devised numerous ingenious and wonderful networking applications. These applications include the classic text-based applications that became popular in the 1980s, including remote access to computers, electronic mail, file transfers, newsgroups, and chat. But they also include more recently conceived multimedia applications, such as the World Wide Web, Internet telephony, video conferencing, and audio and video on demand.

Although network applications are diverse and have many interacting components, software is almost

always at their core. Recall from Section 1.2 that for a network application's software is distributed among two or more end systems (i.e., host computers). For example, with the Web there are two pieces of software that communicate with each other: the browser software in the user's host (PC, Mac or workstation), and the Web server software in the Web server. With Telnet, there are again two pieces of software in two hosts: software in the local host and software in the remote host. With multiparty video conferencing, there is a software piece in each host that participates in the conference.

In the jargon of operating systems, it is not actually software pieces (i.e., programs) that are

communicating but in truth processes that are communicating. A process can be thought of as a program that is running within an end system. When communicating processes are running on the same end system, they communicate with each other using interprocess communication. The rules for interprocess communication are governed by the end system's operating system. But in this book we are not interested in how processes on the same host communicate, but instead in how processes running on different end systems (with potentially different operating systems) communicate. Processes on two different end systems communicate with each other by exchanging messages across the computer network. A sending process creates and sends messages into the network; a receiving process receives these messages and possibly responds by sending messages back. Networking applications have application-layer protocols that define the format and order of the messages exchanged between processes, as well as the actions taken on the transmission or receipt of a message.

The application layer is a particularly good place to start our study of protocols. It's familiar ground.

We're acquainted with many of the applications that rely on the protocols we will study. It will give us a good feel for what protocols are all about, and will introduce us to many of the same issues that we'll see again when we study transport, network, and data link layer protocols.

Computer processing

1.1 Computer processing

All computer systems, whether it’s a desktop, laptop, tablet, smart phone, gaming console, or a special-purpose device like a car’s navigation system, share certain characteristics. The details vary, but they all process data in similar ways. W hile the majority of this book deals with the development of software, w e’ll begin with an overview of computer processing to set the context. It’s important to establish some fundamental terminology and see how key pieces of a computer system interact.

A computer system is made up of hardware and software. The hardware components of a computer system are the physical, tangible pieces that support the computing effort. They include chips, boxes, wires, keyboards, speakers, disks, memory cards, USB flash drives (also called jump drives), cables, plugs, printers, mice, monitors, routers, and so on. If you can physically touch it and it can be

considered part of a computer system, then it is computer hardware.

The hardware components of a computer are essentially useless without instructions to tell them what to do. A program is a series of instructions that the hardware executes one after another. Software

consists of programs and the data those programs use. Software is the intangible counterpart to the physical hardware components.

Together they form a tool that we can use to help solve problems.

The key hardware components in a computer system are

■ central processing unit (CPU)

■ input/output (I/O) devices

■ main memory

■ secondary memory devices

Each of these hardware components is described in detail in the next section. For now, let’s simply examine their basic roles. The central processing unit (CPU) is the device that executes the individual commands of a program. Input/output (I/O) devices , such as the keyboard, mouse, and monitor, allow a human being to interact with the computer.

Programs and data are held in storage devices called memory, which fall into two categories: main memory and secondary memory. Main memory is the storage device that holds the software while it is being processed by the CPU. Secondary memory devices store software in a relatively permanent manner. The most important secondary memory device of a typical computer system is the hard disk that resides inside the main computer box. A USB flash drive is also an important secondary

memory device. A typical USB flash drive cannot store nearly as much information as a hard disk. USB flash drives have the advantage of portability; they can be removed temporarily or moved from computer to computer as needed. Another portable secondary memory device is the compact disc (CD).

Software Categories

Software can be classified into many categories using various criteria. At this point we will simply differentiate between system programs and application programs. The operating system is the core software of a computer. It performs two important functions. First, it provides a user interface that allows the user to interact with the machine. Second, the operating system manages computer resources such as the CPU and main memory. It determines when programs are allowed to

run, where they are loaded into memory, and how hardware devices communicate.

It is the operating system’s job to make the computer easy to use and to ensure that it runs efficiently.

Several popular operating systems are in use today. The Windows operating system was developed for personal computers by Microsoft, which has captured the lion’s share of the operating systems market.

Various versions of the Unix operating system are also quite popular, especially in larger computer systems. A version of Unix called Linux was developed as an open source project, which means that many people contributed to its development and its code is freely available. Because of that, Linux has become a particular favorite among some users. Mac OS X is an operating system used for

computing systems developed by Apple Computers.

Operating systems are often specialized for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets. The iOS operating system from Apple is used on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. It is similar in functionality and appearance to the desktop Mac OS,but tailored for the smaller devices. Likewise, Windows Phone is the version of the Windows operating system from Microsoft used in their phones. Android is a Linuxbased mobile operating system developed by Google and used on many phones.

An application (often shortened in conversation to “app”) is a generic term for just about any software other than the operating system. Word processors, missile control systems, database managers, Web browsers, and games all can be considered application programs. Each application program has its own user interface that allows the user to interact with that particular program.

The user interface for most modern operating systems and applications is a graphical user interface (GUI, pronounced “gooey”), which, as the name implies, makes use of graphical screen elements. Among many others, these elements include

■ windows , which are used to separate the screen into distinct work areas

■ icons , which are small images that represent computer resources, such as a file

■ menus, checkboxes, and radio buttons , which provide the user with selectable

options

■ sliders , which allow the user to select from a range of values

■ buttons , which can be “pushed” with a mouse click to indicate a user selection

The mouse is the primary input device used with GUIs; thus, GUIs are sometimes called point-and-click interfaces . 

The interface to an application or operating system is an important part of the software because it is the only part of the program with which the user interacts directly. To the user, the interface is

the program. Throughout this book we discuss the design and implementation of graphical user interfaces. The focus of this book is the development of high-quality application programs.

We explore how to design and write software that will perform calculations, make decisions, and present results textually or graphically. We use the Java programming language throughout the text to demonstrate various computing concepts.
